Someone very clever (not me) said that you can pump out jammed pistons with a grease gun.

I've got a stuck piston in a GS1000 caliper at the moment, compressed air won't shift it, I'm going to rig up a front master cylinder to and old set of bars, connect with an old hose and pump away.

I'm take some pics.
Cheers,

Mark.
